Church for Sunday - St-Pierre Cathedral, Saintes


We had to drive down from here in the Loire Valley to Bordeaux on Friday so decided to make a stop at Saintes en-route, a place we had not visited. On arrival we headed over the river Charente to check ou the mighty St-Pierre Cathedral.


This 15th century Gothic monument is hard to miss with it massive bell tower dominating the skyline.


Inside is as you would expect of such a grand building with its central aisle leading to a flamboyant altar.
